People can take everything away from you But they can never take away your truth But the question is, Can you handle mine?
They say I'm crazy I really don't care That's my prerogative They say I'm nasty But I don't give a damn Getting boys is how I live
Some ask me questions Why am I so real? But they don't understand me I really don't know the deal About my sister Trying hard to make it right Not long ago before I won this fight
Everybody's talkin' all this stuff about me Why don't they just let me live? (tell me why) I don't need permission Make my own descisions (oh) That's my prerogative
That's my prerogative
(It's my prerogative)
Its the way that I wanna live (It's my prerogative)
They can't tell me what to do...
Don't get me wrong I'm really not souped Ego trips is not my thing All these strange relationships It really gets me down I see nothing wrong Spreading myself around
